This is my Imaging Set-up

Just thought I'd show you my Imaging set-up. I keep forgetting to take a pic of it all in use, so I took some tonight.

Pooters are in the tiny 4' x 4' cubby! Just enough room for me to squeeze in.

Pic 1. Mission Control
Pic 2. The scope all wired up & with ice again (still cold here)
Pic 3. Cheryl thought it was funny, so she got a pic of me in there

I don't think that 2nd pic does justice to the sheer size of that setup!

You need to insert yourself to add scale!

Nice looking setup Ken, look forward to seeing it's output!

Ken,
you have been watching too much NASA TV. your mission control looks very cosy, but the rocket launcher has a few exposed wires! Nice setup Ken, now where are the images through the launcher?

Who would have thought Kenny Koala would have gone down the imaging track.

Looks like a fun set up.
